Buenos Aires., With the perspective of an intense and chaotic December for the government of President Javier Milei, which in addition to clashes with his partners and internal divisions, the month begins with a wave of increases in fuel, food, services and medicines, which are at unaffordable prices for the majority of the population, increasing threats and control mechanisms, destroying rights and democratic institutions, determined to destroy of the State, a dispute has also arisen on the issue of human rights, with the intention of releasing or achieving house arrest for soldiers convicted of crimes against humanity committed during the dictatorship (1973-1983).
At this time, Judge Adriana Pallioti rejected a new request from intelligence agent Raúl Guglielminetti, who acted in the sinister Battalion 601, key to the military dictatorship, participant in the Operation Condor and other military operations in Central America, tried and convicted in several cases that led to his prison sentence.
This coincided with the recent presentation by pro-defense organizations of the past dictatorship, to request the house arrest of soldiers tried and detained for crimes against humanity, in fair trials recognized in the world and highlighted by international institutions.
The defense of Guglielminetti, 83, had already requested in April 2020 that he be placed under house arrest during the pandemic, which was also rejected by the Federal Court of Cassation, given the number of convictions he has for his participation in the Clandestine Detention and Extermination Center, Automotores Orletti, which was a symbol of the Operation Condorparticipating in kidnappings, torture and deaths, committed in that place.
Orletti was a police vehicle repair shop and in May 1976 it was converted into a clandestine detention center; In November of that same year he had to be hurriedly evicted due to the historic escape of a young couple, when his tormentors were taking a break. rest and they managed to flee, with which it was decided to immediately close this place, where local and foreign victims were taken as part of the Operation Condor.
Guglielminetti was linked to Aníbal Gordon, of the parapolice Alianza Anticomunista Argentina (Triple A), which operated between 1973 and 1976, when he joined the dictatorship’s task forces. Vice President Victoria Villarruel, from a military family, insists, along with other pro-dictatorship organizations, on the release of those she considers heroes.
Meanwhile, in the context of the serious situation at the national level, a small light was turned on by the decision of a chamber (court) to prescribe an armed case by the Jujuy justice system submitted to the then governor of Gerardo Morales, of the Civic Union. Radical (UCR), when it allied itself with the right-wing Republican Proposal creating Cambiemos, headed by Mauricio Macri, winning the 2015 elections.
On January 16, 2016, Milagro Sala, leader of the Tupac Amaru Organization, which managed to create several neighborhoods for workers, built by themselves, including schools and medical centers, in a work recognized in the world, was the first detained, as a symbol of what would be the Cambiemos government, the main antecedent of La Libertad Avanza, now associated with the far-right Javier Milei.
Salas was thus released from one of the main false cases created by the Morales justice system while she is still in house arrest for another false cause, but her immediate release is expected after having suffered unspeakable suffering.
